MBFC API – Media Bias, Factual Reporting, and Source Credibility Data
Media Bias Fact Check (MBFC) provides structured access to one of the most widely used media bias and factual reporting databases, covering more than 10,000 news sources, websites, and media outlets. Our data includes source names, domains, URLs, country of origin, media type, bias ratings, factual reporting ratings, and credibility assessments.
MBFC data is used for media analysis, source evaluation, news aggregation, misinformation research, AI tools, brand safety, academic research, and content credibility workflows.
Direct Commercial API Access
For commercial, enterprise, platform, AI, advertising, compliance, dashboard, or client-facing use, MBFC recommends direct commercial API access. This dedicated API is faster, more stable, and better suited for organizations that need reliable access to MBFC data beyond the limitations of RapidAPI.
Direct API access is appropriate for companies and organizations using MBFC data in internal systems, commercial products, client reports, dashboards, data enrichment tools, AI/search products, or large-scale analysis.
Commercial access is handled directly with MBFC, with pricing based on use case, request volume, and scope. Reduced arrangements may be available for startups, nonprofits, academic institutions, and limited-use commercial projects.

RapidAPI Access
MBFC also offers limited API access through RapidAPI for developers, educators, researchers, testing, proof-of-concept projects, and smaller applications with limited request volume.
RapidAPI is not intended for large-scale commercial use, resale, redistribution, enterprise integration, high-volume access, or client-facing commercial products. Public use of MBFC data through RapidAPI should include clear attribution to Media Bias Fact Check, including a hyperlink to MediaBiasFactCheck.com when practical.
